my 5 copywriting principles
I don’t dive in like some knucklehead with an itchy trigger finger. For me, communication and clarity are critical pillars that determine the success of any project. Before our mission begins, I make sure we’re on the same page with a crystal-clear scope that outlines the project, including goals, milestones, timelines, deliverables, and payment.
Good writers read. Great writers never stop. I embrace an ethos of continuous learning. Even if it’s a familiar industry for me, every project starts with a deep dive to gather new knowledge, tools, and techniques. It’s the only way I can help put businesses on the throne.
Of course, your goals for conversions and sales are paramount. But stodgy sales jargon and corporate humdrum are my kryptonite. I use voice-of-customer research to whip up conversational messaging that reveals your brand’s charming personality and seemingly telepathic powers. The result? You’re more relatable, likeable, and captivating.
Nobody cares about a cold, faceless business. With the right blend of emotive copy and logic, I give you a brand story that clicks with your kinda’ people. As I bring them along on the journey, your copy connects with your prospects on a deeper level, compelling them to take action.
All the creative wordplay comes second to your business goals. It doesn’t matter how many rough drafts and coffee refills have gone before. When the dust settles, you can be confident the final cut will be fluff-free, and driven by real data and solid research on what your customers actually want and need.
Honesty street: If I believe I lack the knowledge, passion, or desire to educate myself enough to kick ass on your project, I’ll tell you. Instead of bumbling our way to a B-rate product, I’ll try to hook you up with someone who is a better fit.
“If you’re not innovating, you’re regurgitating. it’s time to tell the story only you can tell.”
so, you can make this work - right?
I have a very particular set of skills.
Skills I have acquired over a long career.
Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you your competitors.
